heya - just saw that - time for testing.....

 

[Michael Dalton]

nice they added red rocket support too! Wish Avid would do that.

 

[Anderson Boyd]

This is a huge release, firmly puts FCP back in the running. The smallest addition but most naggingly needed, preserved In and Outs!

 

[Kwan Khan]

start editing right away with native support for .r3d files!!! NIce

I wonder, if this welcome development may change some people's mind about jumping the Apple ship. Just yesterday Avid stock got absolutely crushed after Avid reported very disappointing quarterly results. Makes one think, if it's worth the expense and effort of moving to Avid instead of giving Apple the second look.

 

[Dave Blackham]

So says Meisler supports Prores, so is this 4.2.2 or 4.4.4 ?

I tried to import an R3d and file not recognized...10.0.5

You guys will need this download:

This new installer has the RED Final Cut Pro X plugin (amongst other things) to enable R3D support

 

[Joel Arvidsson]

Looking forward to here how smooth the r3d playback. Still getting a pc as new workstation. Bu perhaps an macbook pro in the future.

Don't want to get ahead of myself but...

RED and Apple working together on Final Cut Pro X! Feels like old times.
Hope it gives us just that much of a better world.

[Terry VerHaar]

What you want is 10.0.6.

Isnt it 10.0.6?

 

[Rob Lohman]

For this to work:

- need FCP X 10.0.6
- need our workflow installer 2.0
- need Rocket 1.4.28 driver & included firmware (if using Rocket)

Rocket will auto detect per default. For more control you can configure it in our REDcode preference panel (which is now 64-bit enabled as well).

I have been listening to Avid's earnings conference calls over the past few years. The consistently high level of bullshit has risen to the point of just below sociopathic.

 

[Kyle Gentz]

Wait im confused, why are we still needing to transcode to to prores in the background?

 

[Rob Lohman]

Kyle: it's an option. ProRes is less resource intensive than REDCODE, so some people may want to use that option. All about options.
